About

Shannon Brailsford is an Integrative counsellor who offers a safe, healing and inclusive space to explore issues that are affecting day-to-day life.

She works with people who are finding it hard to put their own needs first, who overcommit, feel overwhelmed, feel lost, or struggle with low confidence and self-belief. Through counselling she supports clients to understand themselves more clearly and to make changes that help them live in a more authentic, balanced way.

Shannon is guided by each person’s pace and comfort levels, and she aims to build a therapeutic relationship grounded in respect and trust. In sessions she may explore self-limiting beliefs, their origins, and practical ways to create lasting change that aligns with who a person truly is.

Having been in the client seat herself, Shannon empathises with how overwhelming and scary it can be to be vulnerable with another person, and she has also experienced how counselling can be life changing. She accompanies people on that journey with compassion, curiosity and sensitivity.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility - you can connect in the way that fits your life and comfort level, whether that is a video call, a phone conversation, live chat, or in-app messaging. That range of options can make it easier to include therapy alongside work, family, and other commitments.

Therapists offering online care are licensed professionals, and if you decide another approach or a different therapist would suit you better, you can switch at any time. This adaptability, coupled with demonstrated effectiveness for many common issues, makes online therapy a practical choice for many people beginning or continuing their mental health journey.
